Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 How will we access 'My Account' once the original forums are removed? This is an important link that seems to have been forgotten here on these forums. It might be difficult to direct players to that site page with no link here.I've saved/bookmarked the page; I'd suggest others do so, as well just in case it is some time before a link, or some other navigation is offered.Also, the forum link on the Support site page links to the old forums, rather than the new ones. (I was checking to see if one could access 'My Account' from there; alas, no go.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustTrogdor.7892 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I agree the link needs to be added like the old forum. To access My Account though: Guildwars2.com > Services > My Account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 Ahh, thanks for the heads up. I didn't think to look in Services. And I've opened 'Services' a 1000 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 To be fair if I didn't normally visit the forum and came to the GW2 site wanting to access my game account page I wouldn't ever think to go to the forum first, I'd expect a link somewhere on the main site. (As it is I did normally go to the forum and use that link, but only because I came to the forum all the time anyway.)It might be helpful to add an account link to the banner along the top, alongside Guildwars2.com, Forums, Support and Wiki. Except maybe hide it when you're on the Wiki since that uses separate accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 True, maybe, but I know we've seen many posts on the forums about things associated with 'My Account', like how to link GW and GW2 accounts, or whether certain content is active, etc., and it was easy to send them to the 'My Account' link (above). Maybe it is more for veteran forum users; just like me, I hadn't thought of 'Services' when looking for 'My Account'. I think it's sort of like most people don't look in 'Services' for the 'Support' link, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted September 15, 2017 Author Share Posted September 15, 2017 An update: Found the 'My Account' link at the bottom of the page. Not sure why I forgot to look down there. I guess that's an acceptable place to put links; it's just that they are kind of hidden down there.I should have known better; thus, ...never mind. =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
